Neither be you sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
But you are he that took me out of the womb: you did make me hope when I was on my mother’s breasts. I was cast on you from the womb: you are my God from my mother’s belly.
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. 12And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.
